What do the symbols and icons within a family coat of arms mean? Perhaps you don't have a family coat of arms and are looking for a symbol to represent you?

Here are some of the most common symbols we have used to engrave custom signet rings. 

The swan will fight to the death in battle, therefore it is a symbol of vigilance and courage. 

The goat is emblematic of persistence and strength.

The lion is known to be the noblest of all the wild beasts, making it the symbol of strength, valour, bravery and royalty. 

The stag symbolises peace and harmony.

The whale resembles patience and understanding. 

The bee is a sign of industry, creativity,  wealth, diligence and eloquence 

The unicorn is a symbol of purity and virtue.
